The model went a perfect 3–0 last night, while Chris’s personal picks finished 2–1 after fading Detroit in a close overtime game. Overall, it was a strong night for the process and another example of why trusting data over emotion matters.

The episode also covers key NHL headlines, including a major trade involving the Golden Knights, Tampa Bay extending their point streak, and potential changes coming for the Rangers.

Tonight’s slate is loaded with heavy favorites, which makes pricing tricky and creates opportunities for uncomfortable but high value spots. Chris walks through three aggressive picks, explains the reasoning behind fading certain model signals, and why one unit discipline matters on nights like this.

Tonight’s picks discussed
Calgary vs New Jersey
Buffalo vs Carolina
NY Islanders vs Vancouver

This is a high variance slate with real upside if two of the three picks hit. As always, the focus is on long term process, value, and discipline rather than chasing short term results.
